The hole for the wiper arm is my reason for the whole water in the panel of the hatch thing.

Lookin good! That engine looks sooooo much better with clean valve covers. :) Looks like a pretty clean soup.

Hmm... I'm confused now. I though it was the cable with the small orange boot that was the problem. I have only dealt with the throttle cable and the cruise cable. I wasn't even aware there was another adjustable cable under there. Is the cable right below the rod that conncets right above your...

They're not kidding about writing off your entire day.

40 mph shake could be many things. First thing i would check is balancing the tires. Out of balance tires can give you a wicked shimmy. Could be many other more serious things as well. Driveshaft maybe out of whack? :dunno: As for the throttle cable, it's an easy fix. You no doubt removed the...

Good work!!! :D I changed my oil pan in the freezing rain a while back so i know what you mean. AJ had a great point with the repair manual. The TSRM is the closest thing i have to a bible, lol.

OMG, drain some of that oil please. Many here like to use a quart over, but 10 is a little excessive. lol. Honestly, I really respect that you're willing to learn about your car. I have absolutely no problem with people that dont know a tire from a wheel as long as they make an honest attempt...

Ya, I'm not sure I believe that acceleration. If it had that kind of power, seems the passenger would barely be able to keep from being sucked into the seat. I doubt he'd be able to hold the camera that steady.

The bolt pictured is the stock valve cover screw from Toyota. Its right, but not the best solution, IMO. Go get those bolts you saw where the thread stopped before the head, just like the one pictured, but with a hex head that is wrenchable. Just don't torque it down too much. Those bolts are...

True. That's how I originally approached it, but its not easy to get the last little bit that's hanging out in the crevice around the plug. My towel kept tearing. Either way it gets the job done in a relatively simple and quick way.

I didn't clean it all out my first time and the car ran like complete shit for about 30 minutes. If you get oil in the cylinders you'll just have to burn it off. Not the end of the world, but a pain. Easiest way i found was to get a normal 5/8 socket and dip it down in the galley as if you were...

I was about to post a similar thread. I got my winter tires. All 4 hankook studdable for 250 shipped to my doorstep. SWEET DEAL!!!!

Very Cool

Holy crap.

CF Targa, or like poodles said a plexiglass one that is heavily smoked. ***edit, on second thought a targa that never developed a leak would be fantastic. :) New suspension set-up. Not necessarily coilovers, but an all new set-up with new bushings and everything. Wheels.... freakin wheels...

Green bolts must be removed. If you had a ton of soot in that top coolant hose going to the TB, I would think you should flush your coolant system. As for the torque wrench, you should be ok without one if you can estimate at all. The valve covers are not too tight, about 2 ft-lbs or 20 inch...
